Program Overview: Explore the Wiradjuri Dreamtime through dance
Bulnuruwanha – Taking Flight is a contemporary Indigenous dance work exploring the Wiradjuri Dreamtime stories of the Magpie, Willy Wagtail, Kookaburra and Cockatoo and their roles in the creation of the land. Developed and delivered by recent NAISDA graduate, new Bangarra member, and First Nations choreographer and dancer Emily Flannery, Bulnuruwanha takes kids and families through four different dances inspired by the birds and animals of the NSW Central Coast. Kids and families will learn parts of the choreography and respond with reflections on animals and birds from their own country.
